Neuroscience

Thomas Steen ‘18

How did you choose your area of study?

Coming into college at Lake Forest I was set on entering the pre-law program. I took the science Gen Ed’s and began to see the value in studying the sciences. From there I noticed that Lake Forest had a Neuroscience program. I have always been interested in the human brain and how it allows us to function in every single way. The neuroscience program at Lake Forest has challenged and engaged me in academics in a way I never believe I would. I now have a great fascination with the brain and all its underlying mechanisms. I hope to apply to a medical school down the road and continue studying Neurology and the art of the brain
